  • TSATR S01E21: Of Connections and the Age of Instant Gratification ft. Alix Cruz

    Strong ties with other people require a lot of work. It's built upon by a lot of things like interest, trust, and communication to name a few. It takes so much time, effort, and emotional investment to strengthen that regardless if it's with your family, friends, or a significant other. Nowadays, intimate connections are really hard to build. Social media, in our opinion, may have taken away our opportunity to practice social skills that are essential building blocks to socialize with people face to face. Listen to what Russel and Ziggy, together with Alix, talk about the "Age of Instant Gratification".
